Hello,
As you have mentioned, you are interested in Astrophysics and research field, so you can prepare accordingly. You have to learn physics of astronomical behaviours. First, you have to complete your bachelor's degree in Astrophysics and there after you have to complete your Master's and phd in Astrophysics. You need to practice on your analytical skills, mathematical skills, and problem solving skills. This will help you to be ready for the test. The minimum qualifications for getting a seat for Astrophysics in colleges is 50-60% in your class 12th.
Some of the entrance exams for Astrophysics are BITSAT,IIT, JEE, IUCAA NCRA, etc. The course fee ranges from INR 20,000 to 1.5 lpa.
Hope this has cleared your doubts. Thank you.
